Is latency comparable? Whenever I use mobile data the latency sucks (might be my provider though rather than a technical limitation).
Also, how reliable is it during torrential rain?
- rayiner 10y agoIn the strip mall near my house, I can get 140 down/20 up/25-30 ms ping. 5G is supposed to bring that into the gigabit range and ping times below 10 ms: http://www.droid-life.com/2017/01/04/att-5g http://www.droid-life.com/2017/01/04/att-5g. Obviously you're not going to get that on your phone in a crowded mall. But for fixed deployments you're talking about having about as much shared bandwidth per subscriber as cable at similar if not better latency. At vastly lower cost.
